Description Jonh Wendell 2006-07-27 17:16:53 UTC 
Like nautilus, it would be nice if we can filter files on open/save dialog by pressing CTRL+S.

Thus, we're able to choose a file in a more easy way, mainly from that applications wich don't supply a filter in their dialogs.

Thanks,
 Wendell.

This could be a straight forward thing to work on and Nautilus has an example of how this can be done. But will likely take a bit of time to implement.

clearly, nobody was interested enough to work on it
